Sayyiduna Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: We were travelling with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he said: "This journey is a cause of hardship and fatigue. When any of you prays witr, let him offer two rak'ahs; if he wakes up, well and good; otherwise these two (rak'ahs) will count for him."
Imam al-Bazzar recorded it; its chain contains a narrator, Abdullah bin Salih, the scribe of al-Layth, about whom there is disagreement regarding using him as evidence.
